Hi guys! I'm back on Mint after a month of problems with the notorius Execute Disable Bit thinking my Mint partition trying to run malicious code!

After a month of tedious to-ing and fro-ing I've flashed the bios with an update and everything is back to normal. I have wiped my hard drive and decided to start afresh with Mint 15.

Very impressed with the improvements so far, but one thing is really bugging me.

When I close the lid, or it suspends due to inactivity or battery level, it outright refuses to come back on. The power button lights up, but there is nothing at all on the HDD indicator. The screen has nothing at all either, not even the backlight. I have no choice but to hard power off, which can't really be doing it much good (although with no HDD activity I'm not overly concerned)

Is this a known problem? It seemed to work fine when running Windows 7 after flashing the bios and reinstalling it.

It's not a dealbreaker as I'll just leave it on or shut it down, but when I get caught with my pants down in regards to the battery, or my wife does the normal thing of just closing it, it makes it a tad awkward.

Looks like you put an encryption program on there which commented out the old swap location or UUID and took it over for the encryption swap. This is the new UUID for the old swap that is now encrypted.
